Hi Louie,
that is a keeper!! It makes it so much easier than sifting through all the
baloney in the ribbons.

Hi, Folks,
How often have you heard this question from people
"How do I attach a file in Outlook 2003?, or in Outlook 2013?" or "How do I
attach a file to a message in Thunderbird or in Eudora, or using some
version of Windows Live Mail? whatever?"
Well here's a method I just saw on the Blind Tech listserv that appears to
work universally, and folks, it just opened my eyes> Try this:
You have an open email message on the screen you're mailing to someone, or
to whom you're replying. You want to attach a file or several.
In Windows 7 hit Windows_key-e to open Windows Explorer. Navigate to the
filename or filenames you want, being sure you've highlighted all those
files you want, and do a ctrl-c. Now alt-tab back to the message window and
do a ctrl-v. No more fumbling around for the particular keystroke for your
brand of email client, no more trial-and-error of fumbling through a rarely
used attachment process. Here's a method you can take with you, to any
Windows 7 computer, and it will probably work in other brands of Windows,
with very slight differences as well.
Hope this helps.
P.S. Ever wonder why people need to attach files instead of pasting text?
It's because when you attach a file, you preserve the files original
structure, formatting, and creating-program specificities. It's a copy of
the document as originally created, and requires a copy of the creating
program to open and view or modify it. Pasting the tex, on the other hand,
just preserves the wording and punctuation. It remains in the body of the
message, itself, and doesn't require the services of the original creating
program to reproduce it. In short, if all you need is the wording of the
original, pasted text will do. If, though, you must retain all the look and
feel and functionality of the original, you need to attach the material.
